    The record of the death of William Barnes on 18 January 1854. The digital copy is difficult to read but William's name can be seen on the line numbered 42 and his parents, John and Milly are named as well.

    On line 48 is Mary A Barnes who died 11 May 1854 and whose parents are listed as William and Mary Keles. Presumably, Mary who was about 30 years old, was married into the Barnes family.

      Neighbors and long time acquaintences of the late John Barnes and his widow, Milly Barnes, appear in court to set the record strait concerning a statement that had been made in 1821 by a former United States Congressman by the name of Colonel William Brown (see notes). He had stated that John Barnes did not have a wife.

      On 19 June 1845, no less than seven people acquanted with John and Milly Barnes came forward and swore that they were husband and wife. One of them, Sarah Baird, stated that she was present for their wedding in Culpepper County, Virginia when she was about 9 years old and she recalled the birth of John and Milly's eldest son, James Barnes, about a year later.
